This one uses 7s36 movement, hence the 3 o'clock crown position.
Not sure if the limited edition will help the value later like those blue monsters.

I don't have one, I do have a very simple 7s26 Seiko 5.

I'd rather leave the limited collection to those more serious about collecting and
just be happy with a black monster.

I like the knurled ring on the one I posted.

Heck, I just like the word "knurled!"

If I were to go for an orange faced dive watch, I would have to go for a Doxa!

I like the Doxa too, but does a higher model number mean a better watch? I think they have a 300, 600 and 750.

750T is a 45mm watch currently in production and you can still get them, 600T is the smaller 42mm watch which has been discountined, and there are couple hundred of them. 300T is the 1st reissued, they're discountinued and there're 1000 of them...More here:

Here's a low quality pic of my 600T and the LV:

Damn, I managed to avoid this thread for the last 4 days. Here I am leafing through the stack of unopened threads and come across one with an interesting title. I open it up and what do I see:


ORANGE FUGLINESS



Next time, when you post something like this, please put an Orange warning label in the title.
